Skírnismál (Old Norse: 'The Lay of Skírnir', but in the Codex Regius known as Fǫr Skírnis ‘Skírnir’s journey’)[1] is one of the poems of the Poetic Edda. It is preserved in the 13th-century manuscripts Codex Regius and AM 748 I 4to but may have been originally composed in the early 10th century.[2] Many scholars believe that the poem was acted out, perhaps in a sort of hiéros gamos.
